Chapter 71: Day 11
Hearing Mrs. Xu Fu's words, everyone was scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, Xu Fu whispered and said seriously: "Wait for you to use some coarse tea and light rice, in the suburbs of the mountains, there is no delicious food, after the inner child is ready, no matter what the taste is, you must praise the deliciousness, remember, remember!" ”
Everyone hung a black line, I don't know what kind of taste test to endure, seeing Xu Fu so fearful, nodded sympathetically, recalling that when she entered the house, Mrs. Xu's smile full of love and care, she will not make any earth-shattering dark dishes, born from the heart, people who love in their hearts, make things that are more delicious, everyone looks at each other and smiles, a little comforted, this idea accounts for the majority.
Zheng Dong asked: "Old Xu, I don't want to lose anyone, there are only seven of us in total, there are so many mutant beasts outside, when we come here, most of our ammunition has been consumed, it is impossible to deal with monsters with bare hands, can you teach us some exercises, and it is okay to protect ourselves." ”
Xu Fu looked at Zheng Dong carefully, nodded and said: "Your foundation is good, according to what our previous cultivators said, your master helped you build a foundation and knot the pill, and the knot is a golden pill, so you have a light blue early stage body protection aura, this is the result of half his life's cultivation, it will take thousands of years to recover, that skill is even more powerful, it is not available to those who are not chosen by heaven, it recognizes the Lord, and the Tiger Roar Knife I give you will also recognize the Lord, if it does not recognize you, you can't take it away." ”
Zheng Dong stood up and bowed respectfully, "Old Xu, I want to learn your tricks in the cave, can you teach me?" ”
Xu Fu pondered for a moment and slapped his thigh, "Okay, we are also destined people, that is my housekeeping skill, you also have to worship me as a teacher, you have a light blue foundation, I can directly pass on the credit to you, you should worship the teacher first." ”
Zheng Dong was full of joy to learn that big move, but he wanted to apprentice, how to worship, the young man left Huaxia, it was reasonable to not understand etiquette, killing God and Chen Duan had not gone through the formal apprenticeship process, he would not do the apprenticeship at all, Zheng Dong seemed flustered.
"Elder Xu, you see, the apprenticeship ceremony must be attended by the master and the master at the same time, and the three kowtows must be performed, and now the master and mother are cooking, or we will do this later." "Taishan" said these words in a decent manner, and he relieved Zheng Dong of the siege.
"That makes sense, then we'll talk about it when we're done eating." Xu Fu glanced at the kitchen, faced "Taishan", and said approvingly, "Thank you for reminding me, I'm old, I have to forget about this matter, and I can't live in peace." ”
"The meal is ready, Lao Xu, come out and help clean it up." Mrs. Xu called out in the kitchen.
As soon as everyone was about to get up, Xu Fu had already flashed outside, completely missing the sluggish old state of his body just now, he waved his hand, a huge stone table and nine bamboo chairs appeared in the middle of the courtyard, and with a wave of his hand, the food in the kitchen, magically floating in the air, flew to the table.
Zheng Dong was not surprised, the other members of the seventh team opened their eyes one after another, and everyone had the idea of learning from a teacher in their hearts.
At the same time, a large table of sumptuous dishes appeared in front of everyone, the main dish was a king squid more than six meters long, drizzled with a fragrant red sauce, and made a shape with the tentacles of the squid, several tentacles were entangled, padd underneath, and the other was entangled and placed on top, and it was compared to an "oh yes" posture.
The main dish is surrounded by a plate of side dishes, pink, red, green, white, colorful, it looks refreshing and delicious, this dish and aroma must be full marks, but I don't know how it tastes?
Seeing everyone's excited expressions, Mrs. Xu was overjoyed and asked, "Do you know what this dish is called?" Hint, it's a poem, and there is a prize for getting it right? ”
In order to please the future master, several people immediately began to search for memories of the ancient poems they had memorized before, but the loss was that they were all high-achieving students, and immediately someone said: "The moon is falling and the sky is full of frost, this dish is a squid, with a black character, sprinkled with many chopped onions, like frost and snow, madam, am I right?" ”
"Far-fetched, I think it's 'I have collected the residual ink so far, and I still have the fragrance of the palace car', Yang Wanli's poem."
Mrs. Xu shook her head and said, "I'll give you another hint, pay attention to the shape of this dish." After saying this, she brought another jar of wine and placed it next to the squid.
No matter how Zheng Dong looks at it, he is just a king-sized squid, his attainments in Chinese culture are at the level of elementary school, and a few big talents can't think of it, so he has to be silent.
Lu Yuyao suddenly spoke, and said with a smile: "Master Xu, is it 'drunk and lying on the battlefield Jun Mo laugh', this squid's posture is like lying down, part of the bundled tentacles are cushioned behind, like pillowing arms, and the other part of the bundled tentacles are more than a 'yes' posture, we all want to laugh when we take pictures, and later the master brought a wine jar, there is wine and naturally drunk, you see I guess right?" ”
After hearing her call her master, Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xu Fu with a sinking face, "You old thing, when did you accept a female apprentice, why didn't you tell me?" ”
Xu Fu pointed at Zheng Dong and hurriedly explained: "No, no, I am going to accept this young man as an apprentice." ”
"Hehe, but I don't care who you take, I like this girl, so I can accept it." Mrs. Xu smiled and said to Lu Yuyao again: "You guessed right, what the old man taught is useless, I will pass on the gong to you." ”
When the smart and clever Lu Yuyao heard this, he hurriedly knelt down, "Master Xie." ”
Mrs. Xu closed her mouth happily, "You are my first apprentice, am I your master or my wife?" ”
"In front of you, you are my master, if outside, Xu Xianren is your decency, I will definitely call you my master, but master is important!"
Xu Fu was also quite satisfied when he heard this, brushing his beard and nodding and smiling, while the others secretly regretted that they missed the opportunity.
"Okay, my apprentice is well-behaved, come, let's eat first, the dolls will be seated, old man, bring back Wangcai and the native girl, and I will give them some leftovers to eat."
Xu Fu squeezed out a smile, took out a paper talisman from his arms, blew it, turned into a flame, turned into a wisp of smoke and fled away, Zheng Dong suddenly found that Xu Fu was sweating all over his face, and when he was wondering, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Madame Xu shouted outside, and she held the wine jar and poured wine into the small clay bowl on the table.
A young woman and a soil dog walked in around the photo wall, and after a closer look, it was the spider woman, who had changed into a human form, she looked much more comfortable, she looked thoughtful, and she still looked pitiful, Zheng Dong had seen her appearance after transformation up close, and then looked at it, I really couldn't afford to have any pity.
This dog attracted Zheng Dong's attention, different from ordinary earth dogs, with a narrow mouth, exposed fangs, a hint of grievance in his fierce eyes, a body no more than one meter, short legs, and a long tail drooping.
A demon and a dog, standing next to them timidly looking at Mrs. Xu, everyone was a little puzzled by their attitude, I don't know how the fierce spider girl just now could be afraid of an amiable old woman, and even the little earth dog with a fierce face seemed to be trembling.
"Wangcai, come here, I've prepared a separate meal for you." Mrs. Xu squatted down and waved to the earth dog with a smile.
The earth dog took two steps forward, suddenly rolled his eyes, foamed at the mouth, and fainted on the ground, Mrs. Xu frowned when she saw this, and asked again, "Tunu, have you eaten?" ”
The native girl knelt on the ground with a "plop", "Madam, I eat, eat, sir, but, I can testify." ”
"Ahem, the native girl ate it, I brought her food just now." Xu Fu said on the side.
"Oh, everyone sit down, eat, eat, or the dishes are cold." Mrs. Xu greeted warmly.
Although I was still a little surprised by the situation of the demon and the dog, but I didn't eat hot food for a few days, I was already tired of eating compressed biscuits, and everyone was already salivating for this large portion of iron plate squid, as soon as Mrs. Xu opened her mouth, except for Zheng Dong, everyone responded positively, and sat down and prepared to eat.
"Wait a minute, I'll cut the plate for everyone, old man, you also sit down, hurry up, grind, I'll take the knife." Mrs. Xu turned and went into the kitchen.
Xu Fu watched her enter, and whispered mysteriously: "Don't forget, you must say that it is delicious." ”
Even those who feel numb can understand that something is wrong, Mrs. Xu walked out with a knife that was less than three feet, "I'll return you when I'm done." After speaking, she said something in her mouth, and shouted "get up", the knife flew into the air, the cold light flashed, and then she read: "A thousand cuts." ”
Just hearing the name, everyone was startled, only to see that the knife was divided into more than a dozen knife shadows, flying towards the king squid, cold shadows flew, "pop" ------,"pop", "pop", everyone's plate fell a large piece, and the sauce splashed all over the face.
"Oh, sorry, it's a little bigger, so let's eat it." Mrs. Xu put away the knife and smiled awkwardly.
"Thank you, ma'am." Zhu Xiaopu was the first to pick up the squid meat on the plate and took a big bite.
After everyone thanked each other, they couldn't resist the fragrance of the sauce, and they all took a big bite, Zheng Dong looked at Xu Fu on the other side and refused to move, feeling strange in his heart, and only took a small bite.
Just this bite, he will never forget it in this life!
He looked up and saw that everyone's tears were rolling in their eyes, no one was chewing food, their expressions were different, and their facial features were basically shifted, especially the one who took the first bite, feeling that he was in tears all his eyes.
Salty, salty, it's too salty, Zheng Dong ate a little, and felt that he didn't need to eat salt for a month.
Mrs. Xu asked enthusiastically, "Is it delicious?" ”
Everyone looked at Xu Fu, and then looked at the shiny knife in Mrs. Xu's hand, and nodded again and again: "It's delicious, it's delicious." ”
"It's delicious, then eat more, and I'll cut some for you." Mrs. Xu, who was smiling like a flower, began to chant words again, "up", ------。
"Pap" "Pap" ------, everyone's plate fell on the squid meat again, the amount was not less, and the block was a little smaller.
Zheng Dongqiang swallowed a piece, wiped a handful of salty tears, and caught a glimpse of the soil girl and the earth dog standing on the side, they actually shed tears of sympathy.
